==> picture [96 x 34] intentionally omitted <==
Romania Value Creation Strategy
Alpine has created a unique set of opportunities
Key triggers are:
� OMV has a 51% equity in Petrom, Romania’s largest oil and gas company with an average daily production of 200,000 BOEPD.
-
Petrom will be required by the Romanian government to relinquish over
-
50% of its exploration acreage and some of its production holdings in the next few months.
-
This acreage holding covers over 70% of the key prospective basins of
-
Romania.
-
50% of the exploration acreage (= 22,000 sqkm) is required for
-
relinquishment in 2008.

Tunisia JSBA: Areas of Interest
| Tellian Atlas hc province Pelagian Basin hc province Ghadames Basin hc province |
Tunisia: key producing areas and Landsat image map Source: Google Earth � Tunisia offers infrastructure, stability, and both mature and relatively unexplored basins with considerable upside for small and medium size hydrocarbon accumulations. � At present >50 international and Tunisian petroleum companies are actively exploring ~80 permits � Three major hydrocarbon provinces �Ghadames Basin (largest field El Borma: 750MMbbl) �Pelagian Basin (largest field Ashtart: 350MMbbl) �Tellian Atlas fold belt � At least 5 petroleum systems ranging in age from Silurian (Ghadames Basin) to Eocene (Pelagian Basin) |

Tunisia offers infrastructure, stability, and both mature and relatively unexplored basins with considerable upside for small and medium size hydrocarbon accumulations.
-
Three major hydrocarbon provinces: � Ghadames Basin (largest field El Borma: 750MMbbl)
-
At least 5 petroleum systems ranging in age from Silurian (Ghadames Basin) to Eocene (Pelagian Basin)

Tunisia: Conclusions
� Alpine has considerable experience and strategic networks in Tunisia
� Alpine is currently assessing not only exploration opportunities but also potential Brownfields and Greenfields acquisitions
-
Alpine has recently entered into a conditional agreement to
-
acquire 50% equity in a new permit in Tunisia.
18
==> picture [96 x 34] intentionally omitted <==
Technical Justification
The technical justification is to acquire Alpine Oil & Gas Pty Ltd �
-
Offers potential value creation for expansion beyond Cooper Basin asset area using strategic alliances to develop core exploration and production bases in two new areas: Romania and Tunisia
-
Romania and Tunisia provide the following:
-
Excellent exploration upside as the key driver to success
-
Focus & longevity
-
Greenfields production opportunities and under-performing Brownfields for incremental reserve enhancement also available
-
Reasonable fiscal regimes and political stability
-
Infrastructure and ready markets with excellent pricing for gas
-
In the event that Alpine /AuDAX successfully acquire assets, additional funds will be required to mature specific opportunities, identified by the JSBA’s

� AHEAD OF COMPETITION THROUGH EXCLUSIVE DATA ACCESS
-
Unique business opportunity in 2008 through 20,000 km2 Petrom
-
relinquishment. (“Perestroika II under EU – regulation”).
-
�Plan: Fully exploit competitive advantage through possible cooperation with Petrom
-
�Approach Petrom for possible purchase or joint redevelopment of existing production licenses during or after data review
� PANNONIAN BASIN: CORE AREA
-
�Large area of continuous exploration acreage with low-attention fields
-
�No source rock and hydrocarbon migration risk
-
�Very little new Petrom seismic acquisition over fields. Sparse seismic coverage.
-
�Seismic acquisition easier and cheaper than in Petrom core area.
-
�ALPINE OIL&GAS exploration & production experience in Pannonian basin.

STRATEGY (2/2)
� TECHNICAL FOCUS ON STRATIGRAPHIC TRAPS & UPSIDE
�ALPINE OIL & GAS technical expertise
-
�Stratigraphic potential on flanks of existing fields
-
�ALPINE OIL&GAS technical expertise and modern seismic will make the difference!
� TECHNICAL FOCUS ON BROWNFIELD EXPLORATION
-
�Better Production well locations with better seismic data & geological models
-
�By passed multiple zone gas pay which was uneconomic during Communist time
-
�Zones without natural flow were not produced � Re-entry, stimulation
-
�Modern Logging: 99% only Russian style SP & Resistivity (often faulty).
-
�Formation damage mitigation: Horizontal wells, fracture stimulation, completion
